Juventus landed Frosinone and returned to winning ways with Vlahovic as the savior!

Juventus returned to winning ways and continued their hunt for Inter.

In Saturday’s first scheduled match for the 17th round of Serie A, Allegri’s team overcame the strong resistance of Frosinone, prevailing 2-1 away from home. Vlachovic with a terrific header in the 81st minute redeemed the “Old Lady”, who struggled against Di Francesco’s team, whose psyche was high due to the great qualification for the Cup with a 4-0 away win against Napoli.

The Bianconeri they took the lead in just 12′ with 18-year-old Yildiz… dancing three opponents before sending the ball into the net. However, almost at the corresponding interval of the second half, the home team equalized with Baes. The visitors needed enough time to respond and finally did so in the final stretch, while in the 90th minute a goal was disallowed via VAR due to offside.

However, they protected their lead until the final and returned to winning ways after a 1-1 draw at Genoa last weekend, moving within a point of the Nerazzurri, who host Lecce this afternoon.
